            Bug ID: 331976
           Summary: Wrong error message on "address rejected" error.
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 4.12.3
          Platform: Kubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org

This is maybe just an translation bug, since i don't know how to change the
language of error messages. ( Bug 331969 )

Scenario:
User sender at host.de tries to send an email from invalid at host.de to
recipient at host.de.
invalid at host.de is not owend by sender at host.de

This leads to following Error (German):
Fehler beim Übertragen der Nachricht. Mailversand fehlgeschlagen, da die
folgende Empfängeradresse vom Server abgelehnt wurde: recipient at host.de
(Meldung des Servers: 5.7.1 <invalid at host.de>: Sender address rejected: not
owned by user sender at host.de)

Translation:
Error transferring message. Mail delivery failed because the following
_recipient_ address was rejected by the server : recipient at host.de 
( message from server : 5.7.1 <invalid at host.de> : Sender address rejected : not
owned by user sender at host.de )

As you can see kmail misinterpreted the message from the server.


I also tried this with a different server and got a different but vaild error
message:
German:
Fehler beim Übertragen der Nachricht. Der Server akzeptiert die Absenderadresse
invalid at host.de nicht. 
Meldung des Servers: Requested action not taken: mailbox unavailable Sender
address is not allowed.

Translation:
Error transferring message. The server does not accept the sender address
invalid at host.de. 
Message from server: Requested action not taken: mailbox unavailable Sender
address is not allowed.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Send an email from an email address, which you don't own.
Actual Results:  
A misleading error message. (depends on the server)

Expected Results:  
An accurate error message
